01Situation

Swisscom launched a mobile offer for children aged 7 to 16, including smartwatch plans.

New product, new audience

Parents buy, children use. Two sets of expectations on one page.

Goal

An offer page that explains and sells rather than merely informs.

Technical framework

Implementation inside an existing CMS with clear limitations.

02Complication

The tariff presentation was the key conversion lever, and it was exactly where the CMS was least flexible.

Limited design freedom

Core UX ideas could not be implemented directly within the technical constraints.

High demands on guidance

The overview had to make two device categories and several plans easy to compare.

Resources tied up elsewhere

Large parts of the team were working on other initiatives in parallel.

03Approach

I made the CMS limitation part of the concept instead of fighting it.

Configurable product table

Smartphone and smartwatch plans could be configured directly on the page.

Iteratively tested with users

Regular user tests and content workshops secured comprehension before launch.

Content and design in one place

UX writing, structure and implementation were handled together, reducing loops.

04Results

Conversion more than doubled

Compared with the previous level in the mobile portfolio.

15% of orders via the MySecurity app

A channel that had previously generated almost no sales.

Sales targets clearly exceeded

One of the most successful product launches in Swisscom’s mobile portfolio.

What I take away from it

Self-organisation beats a process vacuum

When I take ownership of planning and prioritisation, a project remains controllable even under difficult conditions.

Co-working prevents misunderstandings

Joint sessions with product and marketing shortened alignment and exposed false assumptions early.

Resource gaps belong on the table early

I carried almost everything here from UX and writing to implementation. Today I make capacity limits visible before they become a project risk.

Leadership has responsibilities too

I now ask clearly for prioritisation and resource commitments. That is part of professional collaboration.

Quality needs sustainability

High standards drove the success, but they only work long term when the working model behind them is sustainable.
